The Other Side
I met a man in a bar
Thought I might have had a friend
Till he said he was black and I was the only white then
I said, "Hey man, you'll always be white to me"
He said, "Take off your shoes son and swim the sea"
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
They say dark they say light
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
Black, it's not really a color
It's a word to describe the unrecognized other
And white, is a house on a hill
And a house on a hill
And a house on a hill
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
They say dark they say light
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
She sold her body to men
But she still had the courage to recognize them
They said, "When it is time for the party to come
Just let do a chord girl so we'll know your the one
We'll know your the one"
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
They say dark they say light
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
Thought I might have had a friend
Till he said he was black and I was the only white then
I said, "Hey man, you'll always be white to me"
He said, "Take off your shoes son and swim the sea"
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
They say dark they say light
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
Black, it's not really a color
It's a word to describe the unrecognized other
And white, is a house on a hill
And a house on a hill
And a house on a hill
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
They say dark they say light
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
She sold her body to men
But she still had the courage to recognize them
They said, "When it is time for the party to come
Just let do a chord girl so we'll know your the one
We'll know your the one"
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
They say black they say white
They say day they say night
They say dark they say light
But wait, I'm coming to the other side
